Neil Gaiman is amazing, so clever and innovative. This one shares some characters with his last, American Gods, but stands completely alone. Any readers of his Sandman graphic novels will know that Neil can take mythology and turn it on its head with wit and charm. The style is light and comical, harking back to Good Omens which he co-wrote with Terry Pratchett. New readers have a treat in store. Altogether a marvellous book written by a marvellous author. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
A special hardback edition of Neil Gaiman's internationally bestselling novel with stunning new contemporary artwork by Monet Alyssa.

'Neil could never have known that he was writing for a confused Jamaican kid who, without even knowing it, was still staggering from centuries of erasure of his own gods and monsters' MARLON JAMES

'It's virtually impossible to read more than ten words by Neil Gaiman and not wish he would tell you the rest of the story' OBSERVER
'A warm, funny, immensely entertaining story about the impossibility of putting up with your relations - especially if they happen to be Gods' SUSANNA CLARKE
Neil Gaiman is the acclaimed and award-winning author of the novels American Gods, Stardust, Anansi Boys, Neverwhere, Coraline, and The Graveyard Book.

He has written scripts for 'Doctor Who' and collaborated with Terry Pratchett, and The Sandman is already established as one of the classic graphic novels. As George R. R. Martin says, 'There's no one quite like Neil Gaiman'.
